MLS Delegation Visiting St. Paul To Talk Expansion Team's Venue

August 11, 2015

MLS President & Deputy Commissioner Mark Abbott plans to arrive in St. Paul today with other league officials to meet with Mayor Chris Coleman about the "potential" of a 34.5 acre stadium site between I-94 and University Ave. Residents and businesses "will air their views" from 6:00-8:00pm CT at Midpointe Event Center. They are "concerned about adding congestion to the heavily trafficked area, the financial burden of a new stadium and whether the community could use the facility" (Minneapolis STAR TRIBUNE, 8/11).
